Reliable, Efficient Bag Orientation for Packaging Lines
With its rugged structural frame, precision turning components, and user‑friendly design, the 4216 delivers reliable performance that helps agricultural and industrial producers reduce manual labor, improve throughput, and protect product integrity.
What Is the 4216 Bag Turner Conveyor?
The Chantland MHS 4216 Bag Turner Conveyor is engineered to streamline bag handling by automatically reorienting filled or sealed bags from an upright position to a horizontal, bottom-first orientation. This step is essential for preparing bags for downstream processes like flattening, checkweighing, and palletizing, ensuring uniformity, stability, and efficiency throughout your packaging line.
Designed for long-term durability and minimal maintenance, the 4216 uses a slider bed configuration and precision turning components to deliver smooth, consistent operation in even the most demanding agricultural and industrial environments.
Key Design Features
- Structural channel frame construction – Rugged 4’ overall length for dependable operation.
- 22” wide 4-ply tan slip top belt – V-guide molded underside ensures positive belt tracking; stainless steel mechanical lacing included.
- Compact drive system – ½ HP C-face shaft-mounted drive delivering 70 FPM belt speed.
- Smart electrical design – Motor starter in NEMA 12 enclosure with pushbuttons and safety lockout (208/230/460 V., 60 Hz., 3 Ph.).
- Precision bag control – Adjustable knock-over bar, polished stainless-steel slide plate, and rubber-faced turn wheel.
